Signs You Need Water Line Repairs
A damaged water line may not necessarily leave you without water. Sometimes, the damage can be less severe and harder to spot. If there is a problem with your water lines, you may notice issues like:
- Damp areas or flooding in the yard
- Low water pressure throughout your home
- Dirty or discolored water
- Moisture and mold in your crawl space
- Erosion or foundation damage
- High water bills
It’s not always obvious that you have a leak. Small, pinhole leaks can go unnoticed for months or even years, especially if they are hidden behind drywall or underground. Turn to our team at Canady’s for help finding and repairing hidden leaks.

Water Line Installation & Replacement
Repairs are often more cost-effective when you have minimal damage to your main water line, but if you have more extensive problems, a water line replacement will be a better option for long-term results and greater peace of mind. Consider water line replacement instead of repairs if you’re dealing with:
- High repair costs: When there are major problems with the water line or multiple leaks, sometimes the repair costs can be high enough that it makes more sense to replace the pipe.
- Outdated piping materials: Old, obsolete materials like galvanized steel, lead, or polybutylene pipes should be replaced with more dependable piping materials.
- Advanced pipe age: Even the best materials will fail with age. If your pipes are several decades old, it may be time for a replacement.
- Extensive damage: Severely deteriorated pipes should be replaced to prevent further problems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a water main and water supply pipes?
The water main is the underground pipe that supplies all the water to your home, while the water supply pipes connect each plumbing fixture to the water main.
The supply pipes branch off the water main after it enters the homes, feeding each fixture through pipes in your crawl space and interior walls.
What's the best pipe material for water mains?
The best materials for water lines today include the following:
- CPVC piping is a rigid plastic pipe that’s affordable and has a long lifespan. However, it’s not as resistant to freezing as PEX.
- PEX piping is a flexible plastic pipe that is quick and easy to install, though it is more costly than CPVC.
- Copper piping is a long-lasting metal pipe that resists corrosion, but it’s more costly and harder to install than CPVC or PEX.
What pipe materials shouldn't be used for water main pipes?
Older pipe materials like galvanized steel, cast iron, or polybutylene are no longer suitable for water mains and should be replaced if they are found.
Both polybutylene steel and cast iron suffer from corrosion issues, and polybutylene can be damaged by chlorine, leading to burst pipes.
PVC is also unsuitable for water mains, as it is not as strong or resistant to extreme temperatures as CPVC.
